Why this course?

Description

With a programming-based approach, this course is designed to give you a solid foundation in
bare-metal firmware development for ARM-based microcontrollers. The goal of this course is to
teach you how to navigate the microcontroller reference manual and datasheet to extract the right
information to professionally build peripheral drivers and firmware. To achieve this goal, no libraries
are used in this course, purely bare-metal embedded-c and register manipulations.
Still keeping it simple, this course comes in different ARM Cortex-M development boards so that
students can put the techniques to practice using an ARM Cortex-M development board of their
choice. This version of the course uses the STMicroelectronics STM32F407vg which has an ARM
Cortex-M4 microcontroller.
So with that understood, let me tell you...
